An assortment of Critical Role fan art I've been doing to encourage myself to learn to use Photoshop better, as well as get more practice actually drawing things. There's a variety of styles here, and I've definitely not settled down yet.
Buttonbeard, the imaginary button pirate, riding an aquatic spiritual guardian, in a scene that didn't *quite* happen but would have totally made sense if it did (maybe).
Twiggy! Guest player character, spent a lot of time locked in a box, now she's out she's enjoying the world as much as possible. Also dances apparently. This was done with hardly any reference aside from a quick glance at the character portrait, so the clothing colours aren't correct and those shoes, highly impractical. I like it anyway.
Why hello there! Pumat Sol for #pumatweek. This was drawn and inked by hand, and then coloured digitally.
A second Pumat, this time hard at work. I should have referred to the previous Pumat to make sure they match up, but as it stands there are some pretty conspicuous differences. The matching colour schemes help to even it out though.
That one time when everything went to hell and everyone was captured... except Beau, who totally kept it together and saved the day. Jester was disguised as an old pirate at the time, so I enjoyed making a kind of hastily thrown together looking pirate, with tiefling parts poking out and a very weasel-ish parrot.
Nott the Hand - an exercise in trying to get cloth to look right, whilst also learning to use Kyle Webster's oil brushes.
Study period - I love the relationship between Nott and Caleb, as close as family, but reticent about their closeness. I wanted to show them positioned in familial intimacy but like, not making a big deal about it, you know?
Trying to do something more painterly based on a drawing I inked.
Bit of a divergence here - Photoshop oil painting brushes weren't doing it for me, so I had a go using Corel Painter Essentials. The roses were a challenge, they seem easy but they don't look in real life like they look in your head. The bluish overlay gave them a lot of depth which I didn't expect but will be happy to take credit for.
Episode 48 was an emotional rollercoaster; the start of the episode was all laughter and hijinks, including a fish joke. Later on though...
Nott was hurt, angry and drunk at this point, and I just discovered Faestock, who produces reference photos on deviantart of various poses in costume, fantasy and otherwise. She also has a set of expressions and this was based on one of those.
Just a fun sketch - I just got a wacom cintiq for my birthday, so this was me trying it out. Bees!
